   Thanks to bloggers' efforts to translate that giant pile of seized
   documents from the former Iraqi regime, [1]another anti-war meme gets
   tossed on the trash heap, next to "no link to Al Qaeda" (now that we
   have documentation of Iraq [2]funding Abu Sayyaf). The memo is pretty
   damning.

     In the Name of God the Merciful The Compassionate
     Top Secret
     The Command of Ali Bin Abi Taleb Air Force Base
     No 3/6/104
     Date 11 March 2001
     To all the Units
     Subject: Volunteer for Suicide Mission
     The top secret letter 2205 of the Military Branch of Al Qadisya on
     4/3/2001 announced by the top secret letter 246 from the Command of
     the military sector of Zi Kar on 8/3/2001 announced to us by the
     top secret letter 154 from the Command of Ali Military Division on
     10/3/2001 we ask to provide that Division with the names of those
     who desire to volunteer for Suicide Mission to liberate Palestine
     and to strike American Interests and according what is shown below
     to please review and inform us.
     Air Brigadier General
     Abdel Magid Hammot Ali
     Commander of Ali Bin Abi Taleb Air Force Base
     Air Colonel
     Mohamad Majed Mohamadi.

   Some will argue "well, American interests isn't necessarily America"
   but regardless this memo is a recruiting call for a suicide attack
   aimed at hurting the United States of America, and it's going to be
   very hard to spin this one away if it holds up to scrutiny. Most
   startling is the fact it's a suicide mission for pilots, which is
   obviously eerily reminiscent of a [3]certain day's events.
   Kudos to Captain Ed and Free Republic's JVeritas. Considering what
   we've found in the first 5% of the documents (I don't think we've even
   translated that much yet), the Bush admin must feel pretty dumb for
   not releasing these a long time ago. Sure, there was a shortage of
   gov't translators, but haven't they heard theres a [4]new paradigm in
   town?
